Hey Shelli,
I'm in So. California and can make suggestions here. If you are in Northern CA, are you close to Stanford? I hear they have an excellent mood disorders program and may be worth the phone call to the head of psychiatry's secretary with the question who would you send your mother/daughter/sister to? You MUST tell your shrink your concerns with zyprexa- weight was huge for me and as I mentioned before I have had struggles with bulimia. If she is not receptive to your concerns, dump her. If you are not psychotic why would you put yourself at risk for TD too? Dr. Shipko mentioned some of the older shrinks are more receptive to opiates as AD's- afterall morphine was the #1 AD for many years. To me it's like benzos, you know exactly what's going on in your brain, they both have been around for years and years- unlike atypical APs and SSRIs, etc (which, guess what, have a hell of a withdrawal problems too). Well I guess you can see you are not alone in this quest, a few of us feel very strongly about the benefits of hydrocodone. Take care, Judy
